Evaporation ponds at the Northeast end of the abandoned copper mine in Yerington, Nev., are shown in this aerial photograph taken Jan. 28, 2004. New tests show extremely high levels of uranium in groundwater beneath an abandoned Nevada copper mine but most of the private and all of the municipal wells tested nearby met U.S. drinking water standards, state regulators say. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, with added pressure from Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev.,is citing the new data in pressing the state to broaden its investigation into how far, if at all, the plume of pollution may have moved off the 3,500-acre site where mining began in 1953.
